The equilibrium of 2H 2 O(g) 2H 2 (g) + O 2 (g) at 2,000 K has a Keq value of 5.31 x 10-10. What is the Keq expression for this

system? (Enter subscripts after the letters: for example, H2O = Hs2O. Also, dont forget to use proper chemical shorthand for chemical symbols. For instance, chlorine = Cl but not cl or cL.)

Answer : The equilibrium constant expression will be,

k_{eq}=\frac{[H_2]^2[O_2]}{[H_2O]^2}

Explanation :

The equilibrium expression for the reaction is determined by multiplying the concentrations of products and divided by the concentrations of the reactants and each concentration is raised to the power that is equal to the coefficient in the balanced reaction.

As we know that the concentrations of pure solids are constant that is they do not change. Thus, they are not included in the equilibrium expression.

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

2H_2O(g)\rightleftharpoons 2H_2(g)+O_2(g)

So, the equilibrium constant expression will be,

k_{eq}=\frac{[H_2]^2[O_2]}{[H_2O]^2}

Answer:

5.31*10^{-10} = \frac{[]H_{2}]^{2}[O_{2}]}{[H_{2}O]^{2}}

Explanation:

For a chemical reaction, equilibrium is a state at which the rate of the forward reaction equals that of the reverse reaction. The equilibrium constant Keq is a parameter characteristic of this state which is expressed as a ratio of the concentration of the products to that of the reactants.

For a hypothetical reaction:

xA + yB ⇄ zC

The equilibrium constant is :

Keq = \frac{[A]^{x}[B]^{y}}{[C]^{z} }

The given reaction involves the decomposition of H2O into H2 and O2

2H_{2}O\rightleftharpoons 2H_{2} + O_{2}

The equilibrium constant is expressed as :

Keq = \frac{[]H_{2}]^{2}[O_{2}]}{[H_{2}O]^{2}}

Since Keq = 5.31*10^-10

5.31*10^{-10} = \frac{[]H_{2}]^{2}[O_{2}]}{[H_{2}O]^{2}}

A 25.0-mL sample of 0.150 M butanoic acid is titrated with a 0.150 M NaOH solution. What is the pH before any base is added? The
hoa [83]
HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻ 
so:
\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]} = 1.5 x 10^{-5}
and now:
\frac{(x)(x)}{(0.150-x)} = 1.5 x 10⁻⁵
x is considered very small compared to 0.15
x² = 2.25 x 10⁻⁶
x = 1.5 x 10⁻³
So [H⁺] = 1.5 x 10⁻³
pH = - log [H⁺] = - log (1.5 x 10⁻³) = 2.83

A molecule of acetone and a molecule of propyl aldehyde are both made from 3 carbon atoms, 6 hydrogen atoms, and 1 oxygen atom.
TEA [102]

Explanation:

The structures of both acetone and propanal are shown below:

In the formula of propanal there is -CHO functional group at the end.

In acetone -CO- group is present in the middle that is on the second carbon.

The molecular formula is C3H6O.

Both have same molecular formula but different structural formulas.

H30 + = 1x10 -10m is this acid basic or neutral
gavmur [86]

Answer:Basic

Explanation:

The pH value of the acid is 10.0 which falls within the range of basic substances. A neutral substance has a pH of 7. Any substance with pH greater than 7 is basic while pH less than 7 is for Acidic

Why is the robotic surgical system a bit like a video game?
koban [17]
It is a bit like a video game because when you dumb it down, it's basically a small robotic thing that is controlled by a controller. In video games, you have an avatar being controlled inside a game using a gamepad, in surgery you have a little machine inside of a person's body being controlled using a computer.
